Every possible descriptor should be coded from the slide reading to recommendations and diagnosis for easy data entry, allowing cytotechs and cytologists to focus more on the slides and less on the software used to capture the data.

Because the Cell-CT uses the exact same imaging mechanism but extends the image from 2D to 3D, pathologists and cytologists can almost immediately use this technology to make more accurate measures and earlier diagnoses," he wrote in an e-mail message to Clinical Chemistry.

He said the system included the latest fully automated slide processor, three integrated imagers, a fully integrated, interactive self-contained computer imager combined with specialised review microscope to assist cytologists and pathologists in screening.

Sensitivity ranges between 55% and 83%, and specificity between 74% and 98% (5), (9-12) Skilled FNA technique and the availability of experienced cytologists are vital to achieving high diagnostic accuracy (8).

Although Edmund Beecher Wilson, one of the leading cytologists of that time suspected that not only heteromorphic bivalents (or univalents), but all bivalents experienced reduction at first division (Wilson 1925), the confusion persisted in the following papers by Carothers (1917, 1921, 1926, 1931) in which she studied segregation of heteromorphic bivalents of several other orthopteran genera such as Circotettix, Trimerotropis, Mecosthetus and Amphitornis.

A national guideline for cervical screening was prepared by the expert committee of the Ministry that included representatives from the Regional Cancer Centres, Federation of Obstetrics and Gynaecologists of India, Indian Academy of Cytologists, World Health Organization and International Agency for Research in Cancer, France (7).

Those fields of science with the -omics suffix are both global in their ability to determine health measures and associated mechanisms, as well as specific in their potential to determine individual dietary prescriptions based on a specific genetic profile (the hyphen omics suffix was coined by German and French cytologists between 1907 and 1919 to signify cellular organelles collectively) (1).
